Planning Ahead:

Please email me a photograph of yourself for use in our next self-portrait unit.  It can be basic, expressive, or super creative .  It should be chest up unless you want to draw yourself holding an object, which will be more challenging since you will have to draw your hand and the object as well as your face.  You can really creative with your photography if you want, or keep it simple. No sunglasses or closed eyes, even though some of these examples show those things.  Here are some examples...

Basic:

Expressive & Creative:

Sketchbook Assignment: 

Draw an eye along with this video.

Art Appreciation:

John Singleton Copley painted the Paul Revere portrait we discussed.  Watch the first 4 and half minutes of this episode about this artist's early American artwork, then describe how you feel about the 2 pieces of art underneath the video.  What do you like?  What do you dislike?  What emotions do they evoke?

A Boy with a Flying Squirrel, 1765, Copley

Watson and the Shark, 1778, Copley
